106 Manipulating Images
Use the Thirds grid check box on the Context toolbar for improving photo
composition. A 3 x 3 rectangular grid with equally spaced lines (two vertically,
two horizontally) is superimposed on top of your photo when the check box is
selected.
Moving and resizing the grid allows the main subject of your photo (in this case
a big wheel) to be offset and balanced against a foreground or background
feature within the photo (e.g., the sky as background). Position a main item of
interest in the photo where any two lines intersect within the crop grid (four
intersections are possible). This is known as the "rule of thirds" which will help
you find the most balanced composition where your eyes are drawn to the main
subject. Double-click to crop the photo to the outer grid dimensions.
You can also crop an image to any
selection area, no matter what shape, as
defined with one of the selection tools.
For example, here’s cropping applied to
a selection created with a QuickShape
Selection Tool, called the Thought
Selection Tool.
To crop the image to the selection:
Choose Crop to Selection from the Image menu.
